Sorry for my ignorance but I read on USYD's website that for second year external transfer to the Combined Law degree, Sydney may only look at your GPA, and not 50:50 Atar and GPA. Is that true?
If this is true, how do they compare you to other students who are competing for second year transfers being considered the 50:50 way? Is there also a 'minimum atar' that needs to be achieved for one's GPA to ONLY be considered?
How can I transfer?
Thanks guys!

How can I transfer?
You can apply for a transfer after at least one year of full-time (or equivalent) tertiary study. Students with more than one full-time year of tertiary study are still eligible to apply. Entry will be based on 50 per cent ATAR and 50 per cent tertiary grade point average in your first year of study or 100 per cent tertiary grade point average. Experience suggests you require at least a Distinction average in your tertiary study and a ATAR or equivalent over 97 in order for your application to be competitive. Applicants who have completed less than one year of tertiary study will be assessed on their ATAR only.
It is possible to transfer from a Combined Law program at another institution and complete the program at Sydney Law School in five years. Please note, however, that the requirements of the degree with which you are combining your Law studies may mean that in some circumstances completion exceeds five years. You must apply through UAC.
